  • Glampsite 10 minutes’ drive from the North York Moors National Park
  • The Cleveland Way 10 minutes’ drive; Scarborough beaches 15 minutes
  • Cosy heated wooden pods in the grounds of a traditional country pub
Prepare yourself for a fabulous family holiday at The Falcon Inn, 15 minutes’ drive from the beaches of the North Yorkshire coastline (Robin Hood’s Bay to the north and Scarborough to the south). Set in peaceful woodland and reached by a level path that’s floodlit at night, accommodation here is in comfy wooden glamping pods, all lockable for complete security. Each pod sleeps up to four people and has its own electricity, heating and lighting facilities. Fitted with sustainable sheep-wool insulation, the pods are all exceptionally warm and cosy – which is just what’s needed on a windy Yorkshire day. Every pod also has its own decking area for alfresco dining or relaxing, and they are nicely spaced from their immediate neighbours for privacy. You’re never too far from a home-cooked meal or a pint of Yorkshire ale either, as this site is in the grounds of a cosy country pub with a menu of classic pub dishes as well as local drinks. If you’re in need of supplies for your barbecue, the nearest shops are in Scarborough (15 minutes), where there are also heaps of restaurants, plus family amusement parks and an open-air theatre. The walking and cycling routes of the North York Moors National Park are but 10 minutes’ drive away.

What customers say

This is a clean, well-maintained campsite with friendly and helpful staff. Guests praise the comfortable pods, excellent on-site pub (The Falcon Inn), and the peaceful location, ideal for exploring the Yorkshire coast. Facilities, including toilets and showers, are generally reported as very clean and modern. Some minor points include issues with WiFi signal strength reaching the pods, occasional darkness when walking to facilities at night, and limited space in some en-suite shower areas. A small number of reviews mentioned wasps or a damp smell in pods, though these seem to be isolated incidents. The site is recommended for its value and proximity to Whitby and Scarborough.

Camping pod (five person, no pets)

Liked It was nice clean pod, however did have a damp feel, heater was already on, we let it air out for an hour.
It was only a 1 night stay, no so didnt need to cook or anything on bbq, great for our needs.
Toilets shower facilities very clean.

Disliked If I had 1 suggestion to make stay easier, it would be have a barrow of some description to take luggage to pod. Saves making several journeys.
Wifi ok if outside pod, not strong signal but its just location blocking signal

Camping pod (four person, no pets)

Liked The site is very well maintained and has a lovely pub on site serving great food. I also liked that it was on a bus route to Whitby and Scarborough. Around 20 minutes to Robin Hoods Bay and 45 to Whitby.

The pod with shower room was brilliant with no late night trips to the toilet block.

Camping pod (four person, no pets)

Liked Loved our stay here, worth the money!
Nice scenic views, pod big enough for us, spacious outside. We didn’t try the food at the falcon inn so can’t comment. Would stay again

Disliked It was intentionally clean however when pulled the cushions out from the sofa there were scrums and hairs behind there. The door to the bathroom would not shut. The shower was very close to the toilet which did not feel very hygienic. Cob webs outside and the window at the back of the pod was not clean. Needed a deeper clean, but for the money can’t complain.

Local attractions

The region’s rugged coastline rewards exploration with splendid sights such as the Hayburn Wyke Waterfall (10 minutes’ drive), which flows onto a secluded pebble beach surrounded by lush vegetation. From Hayburn Wyke, it’s possible to join the long-distance Cleveland Way all the way to Scarborough or Ravenscar. When in Scarborough (15 minutes), grab some fish and chips to devour on the sandy beach, check out the events at Scarborough Spa (which range from musicals and tribute shows to stand-up comedy and grown-up discos), or learn about the area’s heritage at the Scarborough Maritime Heritage Centre. The seaside town of Whitby (20 minutes) is dominated by the imposing remains of Whitby Abbey, which is said to have inspired Bram Stoker’s ‘Dracula’. From there, head down into town via the 199 Steps, then cross the River Esk and take a picture of the abbey ruins framed by the Whalebone Arch.
